Agnes – 2
rumble rumble.
It was the sound of a wagon wheel hitting the ground. It was a moderate noise, so it wasn’t bothering me at all.
No, I’m glad there was noise.
“……”
Agnes didn’t say a word from the time he got on the wagon to the Bavarian estate. Usually, she spoke a little, but not this much.
She was just staring at the scenery outside the carriage.
“What are you thinking?”
It was pure curiosity. It seemed that her gaze was not simply directed to the landscape outside. The unfocused eyes were proof of that.
It didn’t take long for him to cut his breath and speak.
The eyes that were moving forward without looking at me turned to me. There was an unknown emotion in Agnes’ eyes.
“I don’t know either.”
Agnes frowned at his words. Does it make sense to say that you don’t know what you’re thinking?
After he reached the highest level and established himself, he became unable to pass on such words clumsily.
Seeing my expression like that, Agnes continued.
“I’m not saying I don’t want to. I really don’t know what I’m thinking.”
“Are you saying it makes sense?”
“I know you won’t believe it, but I can’t find any other way to explain it.”
I was so used to her words, I shut my mouth and looked at Agnes. Agnes’ eyes were transparent. At least he didn’t seem to be lying.
I took a deep breath.
“I’ll find out for now.”
“ah….”
Agnes’ pupil caused an earthquake. She looked into my eyes with an expression that looked somewhat anxious.
Again, the carriage became quiet. However, Agnes’ eyes were not at all quiet. Even the movement was noisy.
I glanced at her and asked.
“Why are you doing that?”
Agnes hesitated for a moment at my question and then asked.
“Are you mad?”
“What?”
Was that the reason you were restless? I shook my head.
“I’ve never been angry.”
It wasn’t that she didn’t understand what she said or did. Right now, when I was explaining Geomgang, I didn’t describe it in a sloppy way.
So he could understand that Agnes didn’t know what he was thinking. It wasn’t cramped enough to get angry.
“Then I’m glad.”
Agnes didn’t seem relieved at all when he said that. Rather, the anxiety seemed to be aggravated.
I had no intention of missing out on such a move. If you can see something like that through a few experiences, it would be good to dig into it until the end.
And I was vaguely guessing why she was so restless and flustered.
“Is it because of going to the Bavarian Street?”
Agnes’ shoulders trembled lightly at the implied question. The movement was letting me know that my guess was true.
A pure white pupil, resembling the eyes of a poor puppy without a path, turns towards me. You could tell how nervous she was by seeing her twitch a little.
“I….”
Agnes’ mouth opens and closes again and again. She glanced at me, choosing what to say and what not to say.
It looked so cramped, so I spoke first.
“Agnes Bayern.”
“…yes.”
“What are you so nervous about?”
Agnes’ eyes continue to tremble. There was no sign of calming down at all. Reluctantly, I moved.
Right next to Agnes.
“Wow, what…!”
“Stay still.”
Whether Agnes was terrified or not, I sat right next to her. Then he immediately grabbed her slender hand.
“Well.”
frowned. Agnes’ hands were like ice cubes. Even for a magic swordsman who handles ice, even the temperature of his skin is not like ice.
It’s because you can control your own magic.
In that sense, Agnes’s body so cold meant that she wasn’t able to properly control her magic.
Agnes looks at me with her eyes wide open. Ignoring the gaze, I slowly inflated mana into my hand.
Remove the aura that has reached the highest level, and slowly circulate mana to warm up the body. Enough to melt the ice that filled Agnes’ body.
Slowly, his body heated up, and then the heat went to his hands. And my mana flows through Agnes’s hand.
As it was, I quietly looked down at her hand.
It was a hand full of scars. As if he had been practicing swordsmanship for a long time, his pure white skin was full of afterimages. It was proof of hard work.
Agnes, who had been begging me to let him go, also shut his mouth once my mana went in. Did you like the warm atmosphere?
I muttered lightly as I looked at the scars on Agnes’ hands.
“You worked hard.”
I don’t know if I heard that, but Agnes immediately shook my hand away.
“Well, that’s enough.”
I still have a little left. Before saying that, I checked the color of Agnes’ face. Seeing the skin dyed red like a blush, there was no need to add more mana.
I regained my mana, lowered the temperature, and returned to my place. Then he looked at Agnes and asked.
“Are you still nervous?”
“…”
“You seem nervous. One more time…”
“No! I’m relieved, so you don’t have to.”
Agnes eagerly refused, so I kept my mouth shut with a trembling expression on my face.
Woong Woong.
Agnes opened his mouth as he heard Jeolyeong’s soft cry.
It was the first time since the redness on her face had disappeared. I listened.
“For the past few years, I’ve been living behind the name of Bavaria.”
It was. Inside the academy, Agnes abandoned the name of Bavaria and was acting like a commoner.
Even I forgot about it because I had been living like that for a long time.
I quietly nodded my head, ignoring that fact. She joined the academy for about a year.
Calling it years instead of a year means that he had already abandoned his surname of Bavaria even before joining the Iliad Academy.
And I don’t know about the past. This is because it was one of many stories that were not covered in the original.
If you’re looking for it, you might be able to find it. If we remembered the traces of the past based on the intelligence of the Philasia family, we would have been able to vaguely know what kind of life she had been leading.
But it didn’t.
It was not only because I couldn’t find a reason to do that, but also because I wanted to hear about the past from Agnes himself.
It was like a promise to a saint. Hearing the story of her and I also required waiting. Even if you wait that long, there are things you want to hear with your own mouth.
“When I first abandoned the surname of Bavaria, I swore I would never come back unless I could rebuild my family.”
Agnes’ face stiffened as he told the story of the past.
It must be a memory that is not easy to recall for her.
Nevertheless, Agnes slowly unraveled his past. From the first time I went out and did chores and made money.
From being scammed to running away from the top.
It may be a small story compared to what we have been waiting for. However, looking at Agnes’ expression, speaking a little proudly, it seemed that the wait was worthwhile.
She looked down at the floor as she recounted some of the past events. Her breathing suddenly lowered.
“I didn’t expect to come back so soon…”
Hearing Agnes talking to himself, I posed a question implicitly.
“Coming here now means that you think you’ve grown enough to rebuild the Bavarian family.”
“No. I haven’t even graduated from the academy yet, so how could that be?”
When she denied my question, I tilted my head.
Was Agnes the one who broke the oath to bring me?
“Then why go to Bavaria?”
“In the vicinity of the old Bavarian Streets, there is an expansive beach.”
“Beach?”
“Yes. The waves with stars at night are especially spectacular…”
My shoulders trembled at the word “star”. After achieving the swordsmanship, strangely, the stars in the sky started to bother me.
Agnes glanced at me and said,
“I want to show that scene to Deron…”
Agnes, who avoided his gaze while saying that, was pretty cute, and I burst into laughter.
He even opened his mouth.
“So, we can’t go to Bavarian Street yet, so let’s go to the nearby beach?”
“Yes. Were you offended by any chance?”
“There’s nothing to be offended about. That’s what I promised you.”
“Didn’t the contents of the promise change a little? I should have asked for your understanding in advance…”
“Agnes. I said it was all right.”
She had to cut off the tail before her horse could get any longer. Otherwise, I didn’t know how far it would go.
When I cut off the tail, Agnes then nodded. Still, she looked me in the eye and carefully opened her mouth again.
“And depending on the circumstances, hopefully we might be able to get into the Bayern Street.”
“Depending on the situation?”
“yes.”
Saying that, Agnes looked at me intently. I tilted my head as I saw her eyes staring straight at me as if they were on fire at any moment.
Why are you looking at me like that?
I turned my head and looked out of the carriage. After being in the carriage for several days, my body ached. I turned my shoulders a couple of times.
‘Isn’t there an opponent who can warm up?’
It was my own thought. A loud noise came through the window, as if reacting to what he thought was never going to happen.
“aah!”
It was a familiar sound, a human scream. Agnes and I exchanged glances and immediately ran out of the moving carriage.
The outside of the wagon was noisy, as expected. Human blood splattered, mixed with tears and disgusting laughter.
Green-skinned chubby squirrels were poking through people with clubs and daggers.
Goblin.
A horde of bastards was running through the people. The dead and the living intersect. They didn’t have enough strength to kill them.
And that power was about to explode, wanting to run rampant.
I used mana at least a little. I had to clean up them as soon as possible to commemorate those who lost their precious lives to mere goblins.
